According to customer reviews, the bus service is praised for its punctuality and professional drivers. However, there have been multiple reports of delays lasting up to 1 hour and 30 minutes. Despite this issue, customers still appreciate the overall quality of the service provided.
I did not enjoy the fact that my seat was being kicked at every 2 mins and when I tried complaining, the two drivers onboard did nothing about the situation. I also did not like that I paid for a whole seat only to get half a seat because apparently the one driver that wasn’t driving at the time needed two seats so I was placed at a seat where I was only able to put half of my behind on the seat because the passenger next to me couldn’t understand why she needed to sit only on her side and not mine.
